Our Mission

Koko Head Cafe is committed to supporting our partners, farmers, and producers through our locally sourced, sustainable menu. We make everything from scratch daily, in order to showcase the best our ‘aina has to offer.

New Digs

In March of 2022, Koko Head Cafe moved down the street to a much larger space that once again had housed its sister restaurant, 12th Ave Grill. We’ve expanded our seating capacity, with both indoor and outdoor seating, featuring a full bar/counter, and also have multiple spaces that can be rented for private events and gatherings. Our entire team is excited for all of the new possibilities and delicious adventures ahead!
